Someone mentioned that the Firefox scripts are not  enabled for 3.0?  Is FS 
aware of this?  What did these scripts do?

I am just getting started with Firefox 3, but I have problems with tab 
browsing and downloads.  I don't always get any feedback when opening a new 
tab when using Control Enter or Control Shift Enter on a link or download 
link.  Sometimes it did the action and I am not aware of it and sometimes it 
did nothing.  Very frustrating!  Also, I got used to closing a single tab or 
entire window in IE 7 with Control F4.  This is very consistent.  This 
doesn't work in Firefox 3.  Would this be a Firefox issue or a FS issue?
